Education commences at the mother's knee and every word spoken within hearsay of little children tends toward the formation of character.

The formal education that I received made little sense to me.

For every fresh stage in our lives we need a fresh education and there is no stage for which so little educational preparation is made as that which follows the reproductive period.

A wise system of education will at last teach us how little man yet knows how much he has still to learn.

How is it that little children are so intelligent and men so stupid? It must be education that does it.

'Tis well enough for a servant to be bred at an University. But the education is a little too pedantic for a gentleman.

It makes little difference how many university courses or degrees a person may own. If he cannot use words to move an idea from one point to another his education is incomplete.

If education is always to be conceived along the same antiquated lines of a mere transmission of knowledge there is little to be hoped from it in the bettering of man's future. For what is the use of transmitting knowledge if the individual's total development lags behind?

Too much of what is called 'education' is little more than an expensive isolation from reality.

TRUE a little learning is a dangerous thing but it still beats total ignorance.
